Hello! My name is Kristine Eason. I have been teaching in New Hanover County for 27 years. I began my career in 1998 after graduating from UNCW with a degree in Elementary Education. I spent the first 9 years teaching at Dorothy B. Johnson. During that time, I taught 5th grade for 4 years and 1st grade for 5 years. I then transferred to Lake Forrest Academy where I served as the Transition Teacher at Codington Elementary. During this time, I supported children that had successfully completed the program at Lake Forest and where being mainstreamed back into the general education classroom. In 2010 I transferred to Anderson Elementary and began to teach 4th grade for the next 7 years. I then spent the next three years as the MTSS Interventionist and a Reading Teacher. The 4th year I was moved into the MTSS Lead position. I was then moved back into the classroom where I taught 1st grade for three years. This past year I was asked to be the Early Literacy Facilitator. As the Early Literacy Facilitator, my main job is to work closely with the K-3 teachers to ensure that they are delivering effective literacy instruction.
On a more personal note, I am married to my wonderful husband Chris. We have two amazing boys, Zac, 26 and Noah, 18. We split our time between our house here in Wilmington and Lake Waccamaw where my husband serves as the Lead Pastor at Lake Waccamaw Methodist Church. I love to go to the beach, shop, travel and read.
